if-changed v0.3.4

v0.3.4 is a security patch release — short, sharp, and important. If you're using if-changed in CI pipelines or developer machines, upgrade now to pick up a patched dependency and a more reliable release pipeline. No API changes, no migration needed — just drop it in.

🔒 Security Fixes

git2 updated to 0.20.0 — this release patches a security vulnerability in the underlying libgit2 bindings. If you're running if-changed against untrusted repositories or in shared CI environments, this upgrade is especially important. (#274)

🛠 Improvements

CI release pipeline hardened — fixed a missing toolchain input in the rust-toolchain steps, ensuring the release workflow builds with the correct pinned Rust version every time. (#277)

v0.3.3

v0.3.3

if-changed v0.3.3

v0.3.3 is a focused maintenance release that keeps if-changed safe, clean, and reliable — patching a security vulnerability in a core dependency, clarifying the project's license, and overhauling the CI/release pipeline so future releases ship smoothly. No API changes, no migration needed; just drop it in and you're good to go.

🔒 Security Fixes

git2 updated to 0.20.0 — this dependency received a security advisory and has been patched immediately. If you run if-changed in environments where git operations touch untrusted repositories, upgrading to this release is strongly recommended.

🐛 Bug Fixes

Release pipeline repaired — a missing toolchain input in the rust-toolchain steps was causing release builds to misbehave; that's now fixed so binaries are built with the correct toolchain going forward.
CI workflows overhauled — the GitHub Actions setup was rewritten from scratch: leaner job definitions, a new dedicated release.yml workflow, automated release-please integration, and cleaner separation of CI vs. publish concerns. Fewer moving parts, fewer surprises.

⚡ Improvements

License simplified to Apache-2.0 — the previous dual MIT OR Apache-2.0 SPDX expression has been narrowed to Apache-2.0 only, removing any ambiguity for downstream consumers and tooling.
Dependency freshness — clap, serde, tempfile, bstr, and a raft of GitHub Actions are all up to date, keeping the supply chain tidy and auditable.
